    Linus taking wetting the bed to a whole new level.
  • The idea of a subscription service for a bed is insane to me
  • @vicroc4
    It really feels like these two get in the same room and suddenly they start squabbling over a single shared brain cell. It's absolutely hilarious and I am here for it.
  • @sneakyomni
    The other bonus of their DIY is the fact you don't have to pay a monthly subscription for your cooler pad. There area other companies that do this, for around these same price point that don't require you to buy a monthly subscription for an app to control you cooling pad
  • @daemon10101
    Product looks cool, but having it tied to a subscription service is an absolute deal breaker for me. Absolutely should be a set and forget option
  • @ItsDSG
    I'm all in for a "Linus and Alex 1 day build the sponsored product and compare it to the real thing" series !
  • @joshuab1707
    "Your comfort is not the priority. The pure watts we can extract from your body is." That might be the most engineer thing Alex has ever said on this channel.
  • @Ellias32188
    Wifi going down and losing the cooling of your bed is a sign we're living in the worst timeline. The insanity of that concept would kill a man from the 50s.
  • @ntnwwnet
    If Linus is stepping down as CEO so he can do more crazy shit like this with Alex then I’m all for it
  • @X2yt
    Now we know why Linus retired from CEO position. He just needs more time to work on watercooling every single item in his house. Stay tuned for watercooled kitchen table, watercooled and overclocked TV remote, watercooled sandals!
  • @RichCurtis
    I remember when Linus was categorically against buying a product that required a subscription fee. But Eight Sleep requires a minimum 1 year subscription for a MATTRESS PAD
  • @Jonamission
    Just as a note "Linus and Alex one day build the sponsors product and compare it to the original" is ABSOLUTELY a series I want.
  • @RybatQ
    Let me get this straight. You have to pay a subscription to cool your bed? That's truly insane
  • @Odayian420
    Really shocked Linus backed these guys with the required subscription service needed to even make it work.
  • @OliveTF2
    As soon as you said "subscription service" my eyes rolled all the way out of my head
  • @alfonsoPina
    I always thumbs up these videos, mainly because of seeing his relationship with his family and his team. His jokes about his wife and sometimes his kids (very rarely actually) are golden. and the way he interacts with the team, on the outside at lease, seems fun. and the amount of screwups they have is so fun to watch. AAANNNNDDDD, I actually learn something almost every time.
  • @Xiellion
    imagine needing a subscription service to use all the features of the bed you bought
  • Yes, "Alex and Linus DIY a sponsor's product" is definitely a series that needs to exist! And tbh, a sponsor must love how much it shows off the quality of their product design process when you see the difference between what their product can do and what these two can cook up
  • The topper in Europe cost about 2700€, about the same as a mini split AC including installation. But that is also a heat pump that can affordably heat the room in winter.
  • @nxxynx5039
    Linus has beat it by simply not requiring a $15/month to operate a $2500 topper
